Thankful Thursday

Join me in thanking God for this past week’s blessings.

This week, I’ve been thankful 

  • that my son has a laptop to lend me during the 7-10 days I’ll be without my own. 
  • for the work my other son has done restoring the rotting sections of my fence. 
  • for this summer, even with its mediocre weather; for time spent outdoors gardening, hiking, and playing with the grandchildren. 
  • for joy.
  • for a few problems solved and a few new opportunities.
  • for health and energy and joy. The older I get the more I appreciate these gifts from God.
  • for the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace; for one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all.

Also thankful today:

I was thankful for my mother-in-law yesterday :)

I've added it. (I don't have my own laptop with my trusty system for keeping track of other people's posts for linking, so I missed that somehow.)

Ooh, 7-10 days without a laptop. I hope it's nothing serious. My son just has his Macbook died after having two hard drives in the last 12 months.

It's serious . . . meaning I need a new laptop. It'll take 7-10 days for it to come in.

It could have been fixed, but my laptop was so old that it didn't make sense to spend the money to fix it.

Nice! I just got a new iMac. My other refurbished one was so good, and it lasted for four years, but I could not get any more memory on it, and I was having trouble running Photoshop. The one I got 8GB of RAM, so I think that should do me for a while.
